Journal ArticleDOI
The role of temperature in the onset of the Olea europaea L. pollen season in southwestern Spain.
Carmen Galán,Herminia García-Mozo,Paloma Cariñanos,Purificación Alcázar,Eugenio Domínguez-Vilches +4 more
TL;DR: Different methods of obtaining the best-forecast model for the onset date of the O. europaea pollen season, using temperature as the predictive parameter are proposed in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Model for forecasting Olea europaea L. airborne pollen in South-West Andalusia, Spain.
Carmen Galán,Paloma Cariñanos,Herminia García-Mozo,Purificación Alcázar,Eugenio Domínguez-Vilches +4 more
TL;DR: The results of the multiple regression analysis show that the variables exerting the greatest influence on the pollen index were rainfall in March and temperatures over the months prior to the flowering period, while temperature proved the best variable for this prediction.
Journal ArticleDOI
May the definition of pollen season influence aerobiological results
Victoria Jato,F. J. Rodríguez-Rajo,Purificación Alcázar,P. De Nuntiis,Carmen Galán,Paolo Mandrioli +5 more
TL;DR: The criteria for limiting the shortest and longest pollen season periods, as well as the earliest and latest start and end dates, varied according to the city and the taxon under study; in many cases, results for a given taxon also depended on the year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meteorological factors affecting daily urticaceae pollen counts in southwest Spain.
TL;DR: During periods with low precipitation, the pollen concentration of the previous day was a useful predictor of Urticaceae pollen concentrations for the following day, and temperature was found to be the most important meteorological parameter influencing pollen counts in spring.
Journal ArticleDOI
